House Republicans will announce their intention to form a special select committee on Benghazi Friday, intensifying already highly-charged GOP scrutiny of the Obama administration’s handling of the September 2012 attacks that left four Americans dead.The committee will be led by GOP Rep. Trey Gowdy of South Carolina.The announcement comes after newly released documents reignited the controversy over how the White House and the State Department crafted their response to the attack.

Gowdy seems like the right person for the job. From October2013:
